Book excerpt: This Strega Prize winner “ticks all the boxes of a thriller while also being a masterfully written, baroque, many-faceted depiction of modern Italy” (The Spectator). Bari, southern Italy: On a stifling summer night, on the outskirts of town, a young woman named Clara, daughter of the region’s most prominent family of real estate developers, stumbles naked, dazed, and bloodied down a major highway. Her death will be deemed a suicide. Her estranged half-brother, however, cannot free himself from her memory or the questions surrounding her death, and the more he learns about Clara’s life, the more he reveals the moral decay at the core of his family’s ascent to social prominence. Winner of the 2015 Strega Prize, Italy’s preeminent prize for fiction, Ferocity is at once an intimate family saga, a cinematic portrait of the moral and political corruption of an entire society, and a “gripping” tale of suspense (The Irish Times). “Biting social commentary as well as edge-of-seat reading.” —Library Journal (starred review) “Allows the mystery to slowly and captivatingly resolve while offering a layered portrait of contemporary Italian life and the abuses of power that money can excuse.” —Publishers Weekly “Complex, darkly absorbing and mysterious literary fiction.” —Booklist

Download or read book Che Guevara written by Massimo Zanella and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Che Guevera in his own words: an intimate portrait of the Marxist revolutionary Fifty years after his death, this book tells the story of the Marxist revolutionary Ernesto "Che" Guevara (1928-67)--exploring his legacy as a historical figure, but also encountering him as a human being. Taking its subtitle Tú y Todos from the title of a poem Guevara wrote for his wife before leaving Argentina for Bolivia, the publication aims to rediscover the man behind the iconic revolutionary image, restoring Guevara's story to its more human and historical dimensions. To do so, the book interweaves the geopolitical, the biographical and the personal, mixing different narrative tones and sources--from journalistic narration to the most intimate diary entries. Numerous original archival materials sketch how Guevara's private and public experiences helped develop his ideas about education, foreign policy and economics, his sense of revolution and his hope in the "New Man." Official speeches share space with Guevara's diaries, letters to friends and family and his poems dedicated to his wife, Aleida, a more personal register in which doubts, contradictions and reflections emerge. Che Guevara: Tú y Todos offers an intimate portrait of a figure who has shaped the modern world and captured the imagination of generations. It is the story of Ernesto Guevara, El Che, in his own words.

Book excerpt: This book is presented as a reference book for all those who use or will use the EOS blockchain, similar to what was done by the famous Mastering Bitcoin which has become over time the reference book for all those who work with the Bitcoin blockchain, moreover whereas there is currently no book on it both at European and international level, especially American, to consider also the origin and the profuse commitment of the author, in making a book suitable both for those who are not practical and are not accustomed to this world, taking it by the hand from the creation of the account to the management of the wallet, and also suitable for a developer from the bitter to the most experienced, showing all the passages related to the reference code that was inserted just to have an approach too more intimate with the same.The book covers almost all aspects of the EOS blockchain, starting right from its history and giving interesting and detailed information on how the project has evolved since its creation, giving an overview of the events that took place a few years earlier. Then move on to a first smattering fast and practical on how to create first and then use the EOS account real engine for all the various dApp from the simplest to the most complex ones, where without this information, nobody would be able to start operating under that profile, where with a clear presentation and with the relative images, step by step, show the various basic steps to perform the related procedures. Next we analyze the various aspects that distinguish this blockchain with respect to the others and how it is one of those that could cause a change important in this sector since it is constantly evolving, introducing previously unimaginable functions and goals from that point of view, also in this case looking for a first approach for inexperienced users and then for each topic to follow the example of the relevant code. In the second half of the book we move on to analyze everything at a professional level where the insiders, especially developers, or those who want to learn more, have all the tools they need in a single tool, in Italian, to be able to start operating and experimenting with this blockchain and provide them with the necessary and essential first level to eventually, eventually, progress in greater depth, given that currently the users of this blockchain exceed 70 thousand daily users. Finally the book concludes with an objective view of the various criticisms made of the relative blockchain, all more or less valid, showing how space is also left to the criticality that the same involves using them, significant criticalities but solvable in the long term and where also the author is helping to improve with his commitment and constant effort, leaving room for the reader for a personal evaluation of everything and to criticize constructively and objectively, as in this case, the creaking points of an extraordinary project.Table of Content -> https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VlkE5oeSSVn0pi4SiYlA09lsl-1yBIl9msuH1owWBsE/edit?usp=sharing
Download or read book The Raging 2020s written by Alec Ross and published by Henry Holt and Company. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the face of unprecedented global change, New York Times bestselling author Alec Ross proposes a new social contract to restore the balance of power between government, citizens, and business in The Raging 2020s. For 150 years, there has been a contract. Companies hold the power to shape our daily lives. The state holds the power to make them fall in line. And the people hold the power to choose their leaders. But now, this balance has shaken loose. As the market consolidates, the lines between big business and the halls of Congress have become razor-thin. Private companies have become as powerful as countries. As Walter Isaacson said about Alec Ross’s first book, The Industries of the Future, “The future is already hitting us, and Ross shows how it can be exciting rather than frightening.” Through interviews with the world’s most influential thinkers and stories of corporate activism and malfeasance, government failure and renewal, and innovative economic and political models, Ross proposes a new social contract—one that resets the equilibrium between corporations, the governing, and the governed.
Download or read book Handbook of Food Process Design written by Jasim Ahmed and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-02-27 with total page 1543 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 21st Century, processing food is no longer a simple or straightforward matter. Ongoing advances in manufacturing have placed new demands on the design and methodology of food processes. A highly interdisciplinary science, food process design draws upon the principles of chemical and mechanical engineering, microbiology, chemistry, nutrition and economics, and is of central importance to the food industry. Process design is the core of food engineering, and is concerned at its root with taking new concepts in food design and developing them through production and eventual consumption. Handbook of Food Process Design is a major new 2-volume work aimed at food engineers and the wider food industry. Comprising 46 original chapters written by a host of leading international food scientists, engineers, academics and systems specialists, the book has been developed to be the most comprehensive guide to food process design ever published. Starting from first principles, the book provides a complete account of food process designs, including heating and cooling, pasteurization, sterilization, refrigeration, drying, crystallization, extrusion, and separation. Mechanical operations including mixing, agitation, size reduction, extraction and leaching processes are fully documented. Novel process designs such as irradiation, high-pressure processing, ultrasound, ohmic heating and pulsed UV-light are also presented. Food packaging processes are considered, and chapters on food quality, safety and commercial imperatives portray the role process design in the broader context of food production and consumption.

Download or read book Ptolemy s Geography written by Ptolemy and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-06-16 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ptolemy's Geography is the only book on cartography to have survived from the classical period and one of the most influential scientific works of all time. Written in the second century AD, for more than fifteen centuries it was the most detailed topography of Europe and Asia available and the best reference on how to gather data and draw maps. Ptolemy championed the use of astronomical observation and applied mathematics in determining geographical locations. But more importantly, he introduced the practice of writing down coordinates of latitude and longitude for every feature drawn on a world map, so that someone else possessing only the text of the Geography could reproduce Ptolemy's map at any time, in whole or in part, at any scale. Here Berggren and Jones render an exemplary translation of the Geography and provide a thorough introduction, which treats the historical and technical background of Ptolemy's work, the contents of the Geography, and the later history of the work.
